Topiary

Viburnum Tinus

A more dense and compact form of Laurustinus with smaller leaves, it is named after the wife of Sir Henry Price. Frost hardy and thriving in either sun or shade, this is an ideal plant for providing winter interest, due to the unusually long flowering season. Pink flower buds open in late autumn, revealing fragrant, pink-white, star-shaped flowers that remain right through into early spring and are followed by small dark blue-black fruit. Foliage is waxy-looking, dark green, shiny and slightly egg-shaped. New stem growth tends to be reddish brown, darkening with age to the more usual brown. The plant prefers well-drained, moist soil and grows with a dome-shaped habit to an eventual height and spread around 10 feet (3m).

Buxus Ball

Cypressocyparis Leylandii `Castlewellan Gold`

This is fast growing with flat sprays of glossy, scale-like leaves, broader than those of Lawson’s cypress. These smell strongly fruity if crushed, like pineapple or fruit pastilles. Female cones are flask-shaped, to about 10mm long. The cultivar ‘Atrovirens’ is the clone most frequently offered and makes a thick hedge. Needs fertile, moisture-rich soils.
